Question

i'm getting ready to go in the army in a few weeks how do i raise my credit score?

only have two thing to pay but I don't have the money to pay them off right now. a credit card totaling $534 and a loan totaling $345. If i paid them both off soon as I get the money how do I start building my credit back?

If you want to improve your credit score, don't pay the full balance. Pay a little every month (make sure it is at least the minimin balance and that you do no go over your limit) Or is it that you have to pay the full balance because you will not be able to make monthly payments after you go inot the army (online or by mail?).

Your Credit Scores Should Be Free. And Now They Are.
